My favorite build on Billy, and should be good for any high mobility killer. Hex: Ruin Hex: Undying Surveillance BBQ & Chili (this slot can be any perk you like) I often have games where 0 or maybe 1 gen ever get finished. Furthermore, you’re always in chase because you always know where to go to run them off a gen!
-
Gens can definitely go quick, but there are strategies you can use. It’s worth mentioning that the repair time was actually increased by about 10 seconds fairly recently. Are you new to the game? I’m only asking because with 12 posts, you’re new to the forum (and welcome!) If you’re new, here’s my best advice: Don’t play…
-
Yup, on every map, but particularly bad (for me) on Hawkins.
-
I like the idea of incentive! It definitely works with me in terms of role. If I see that juicy 100% bonus, by golly I’m loading into that role! If I see an ADDITIONAL 100% bonus because Twins is underplayed, oh boy oh boy!
-
I had a hard time with this one, but here’s what eventually worked for me. use the add-on Charcoal Stick. Survivors will see your big crow when you place it (for half a second), but they won’t see the swarm when you launch it. Tinkerer! Effective for the challenge, especially mid chase. They think you’re shooting at the…
-
Try a few matches as him and you’ll get an in-depth view of where his limitations are. When you play survivor again, you’ll be far better equipped to exploit those limitations.
-
Oh I’ve been using Territorial today, and lemme tell you, the value is there! As a side note and a bit of a heads-up to anyone attempting to weave those arachnids, you can be grabbed as though you were on a gen. I’ve done it myself! 😏 (Hint, try NOT to take the position with your back to the entrance as that’s the easiest…
-
Awesome! Got it equipped now, thanks for the info!
-
Anyone know about that red grid-like one though? I’ve seen it twice tonight. It’s not rift.
-
I’m currently queueing in as Hag! should be interesting…
-
I’ve been getting a lot of this tonight!
-
I’d love to see some sort of water-based chapter! Imagine a new map: A cave system - dark and dripping, stalactites everywhere, some chambers partially flooded to splash around in during a chase. The killer, of course, is some horrible cave creature. Could be based off so many ideas: leeches, spiders, bats, fungus, toothy…
-
I figured it out! You have to let go of the gen and stand next to it before applying the trap. The game apparently got confused by Ripley’s new pallet trap perk.
-
Just had the exact same issue with Blast Mine
-
Did you have any ttv players in your lobby? Apparently they’re getting indirectly DDOS attacked whereby everybody else in their lobby is the target.
-
I think I might actually START using it now. In its current state, it just feels scummy. After the update, I think it’s more of a fair perk. Also, my favorite builds are centered around aura reading. Getting auras along with a bit of gen pressure is a welcome addition to my loadout!
-
I agree with you and have the same frustration with hatch/basement offerings. Now I assume the original idea was “offerings are burnt and therefore lost when used, so let’s watch them turn to ashes.” It’s thematically nice and they probably don’t want to leave them up the entire time because of this. Still, it wouldn’t…
-
Most Demo’s I go against are a significant threat. I assume that it’s because players who have him, by default, have lots of game experience.
-
After reading these posts, BHVR might decide this could save them from some serious backlash. Gonna have to pull some all-hands-on-deck all-nighters for the next couple weeks to make it happen though!
-
True, equivalency isn’t needed for everything, but it’s not something that needs to be avoided either. Just a possible avenue for inspiration. We already have various forms of it in the game anyway. Window of Opportunity vs Zanshin Tactics, hexes vs boons, Exposed vs Endurance. Some things are just like each other, while…
-
Well, with killers being locked in before searching, this seems like a completely possible idea. However, if you’re at an MMR where you’re seeing the 3 strongest killers on repeat, then search times might be problematic. Is it better to play 3 difficult / unfun matches in the same timeframe as sitting in a lobby for 1 good…
-
Or maybe a selection. “You have a ritual, which role do you want?” Select and it spawns.
-
If you run a looting build (ace in the hole, plunderers, appraisal) then the “deplete” challenges can be pretty easy. You may also escape with some nice loot! Another little trick is Built to Last. If you use up the item, recharge it, and use it up again, then that counts as a “deplete” each time! Especially useful on the…
-
When I play killer, I absolutely refuse to participate in the eruption/slowdown meta. Therefore I like to use a full detection build to have less downtime between chases. By this I mean BBQ (because it’s still the boss!), Darkness Revealed (because survivors have already completely forgotten to be wary of lockers), Spies…
-
I absolutely agree with you, though it should only apply to early DCs. Time limit, such as first 5 minutes, or progression limit, such as first kill, first gen, first 3 hooks, etc. Honestly though, I wish they’d just remove depipping altogether.
-
Don’t forget that only USA celebrates Thanksgiving (unless other countries have picked it up that I’m unaware of). That said, much of what we associate with Thanksgiving was probably borrowed from traditional Christmas feasts since both holidays are close to the same time of year, and therefore would have the same…
-
M1 killer? Slap on Jolt and then use perks that help you win chases quickly.
-
I thought about that originally, but I really want an object that multiple survivors can interact with. In particular, it would be hilarious to see 2 survivors running away with their buddy! That’s honestly my primary objective here! Lmao
-
I’ve seen this 1 time only, maybe 2 weeks ago. It seems to be exceedingly rare, but I can confirm that this bug does exist.
-
You’re not wrong. But still, I stand by my post. They need to fix the coding so that they can fix the fog. As it stands, “see you in the fog” should be “see your ankle in the dust mote”.
-
While we’re at it, fog! It used to be so good! For a game that uses the tagline “see you in the fog”, it’s honestly kinda weak at the moment. Buff the fog!
-
It’s the entire skill check that’s smaller. The skill check box goes from [good good good great] to just [good great] The great skill check portion (the bonus) actually stays the same size. However, this is a Trapper perk. Since you already have trapper at base game, I’d say just level him up to unlock the perk and save…
-
In my experience, Shattered Hope is super strong against boons……..as in, any time I bring Shattered Hope, they NEVER bring boons!
-
Personally, I just really don’t like the new forum at all. Navigation and just visually finding the info I want is burdensome. Not surprised about the poll bug you mentioned. Wish they’d revert it all back.
-
I don’t think it’s too late to hope, because I believe I’ve seen sales start up in the last week of an event before. Maybe I’m thinking of bloodhunts, but I think there’s at least a reason to hope.
-
I specifically remember my first killer match feeling much the same way! I was nervous thinking things like “omg the entire match depends on me! I’m in control of the experience of 4 other players! I’m gonna be embarrassed if I do poorly!” But also just like you, the first match went great and I got hooked on killer! That…
-
This bug is currently being worked and should be resolved in the next hotfix. (Tomorrow maybe?) In the meantime, do NOT hover over tooltips on offerings when the game loads. Restart game if the error occurs.
-
You make really good points and I’m happy to discuss them (and maybe make some edits!). So first off, the overall goal of this perks to be anti-deadzone. Bald area of the map or no pallets left? Build a pillbox! The cost is heavy time expenditures. Maybe you have a pillbox near a gen. Once the gen is done, You’ll want to…
-
Yeah, you’re prolly right. Bloodweb has become such an irritation for me that many of my most recent posts are about possible fixes - including the one you mentioned. I think there’s some hope now. One of the big streamers (fog whisperer too, I think) just made a video about this. Seems like these are the people who can…
-
I believe he’s can be found against the shack on the new ptb map. He’s, ummm, napping. Yeah, let’s call it napping…. 😥
-
This has been a major gripe of mine for awhile now. We need a character toggle so that we can be in the bloodweb of a different character than the one we’re queueing with. As killer, you described the issue well! As survivor, I can’t spend on different characters when queuing or else I risk having to “quick switch” back to…
-
If a teammate has prestige that’s higher than 40, they’ll very often D/C as soon as they’re downed. You’ve been warned!
-
Same sounds like a bug
-
In my experience, the Bubbas with the blue jacket are really bad with the camping, but most play normally in general. He’s one of my favorite killers in both roles. When I play AS him, I have to carefully avoid basement. People tend to D/C on the way down there even before they see me hook and leave.
-
Bottle Rocket. 1-time-use. Launch yourself waaaaaay up high (like hackers do) so that you can see pretty much the whole map. When the rocket expires, you fall back down. As you fall, you can still move around a little and try to guide yourself toward a desired destination. Bottle Rocket immediately expires if you hit a…
-
Midwich, but especially when the killer drops an offering for it!
-
No worries! I just put that in there to make sure there’s no confusion. Even the offerings we have now are technically “realms”, but everyone still refers to them as map offerings.
-
@KrypticReeps Hey there, I see that you’re pretty new here to the forum with only 15 posts so far, so the first thing I want to say is Welcome! I’m sorry that one of your first threads had to go this way, but one of the things you’ll come to quickly learn is that this community is VERY political. There are the “survivor…
-
Earn 2 pips. 3 survivors D/C I and depip, even with a sympathy hatch from killer. Earn a pip. Depip (from D/Cs) Depip (from D/Cs) Earn a pip. Depip Can we please just remove depip? Unless you D/C that is?
-
Oh yeah, while we’re at it, let’s also add a character toggle! Maybe I’m searching for a Lobby with Trapper or Dwight, but I’d like to Toggle over to Nemmy’s bloodweb to spend while I’m waiting!
